Groups in teoria.com

As a teacher, you can organize your students in groups so that you can supervise their activities in the Exercises section. To be part of a group your students need to be members of teoria.com. We have special prices for groups of 5 or more students, write to us for more information.

Activity Reports

If you are the teacher of a group you will receive a weekly report of your students’ activities. You can also generate reports for specific date ranges and other criteria. Start by clicking your name in the top menu:

Then click Groups:

You can choose from several options:

Groups - Names and total number of students in each group.

Report by dates - View a report by selecting a start and end date

Report using multiple filters - In this report you can select the dates, group, student and exercise type

Total time report - This reports shows only the total time for each student.

Our exercises are much more effective if the teacher takes an active role in directing the student. The reports are a great tool to help the teacher in this task. The following are some details of the reports to help you in your analysis.

Exercises per minute - Speed can be an important criterion. Even if you don’t want to encourage speed you should check this number. Some students like to multitask (Facebook, games...) while doing exercises. You may find a student that works an hour everyday but when you check the exercises per minute you will see that he may need three minutes to identify a chord!

Multitasking exercises trick

If a student opens two browser windows and runs an exercise in each window for 10 minutes the system will register two sessions of 10 minutes each for a total of 20 minutes. He has only worked for 10 minutes, but he gets 20!

You can find these cases in the report. The exercises name are preceded by ?????????. It is up to you to decide what you want to do.

Predefined Levels

Normally, the students must set up the options before doing the exercises. You can predefine the options yourself using one of two methods.

We can create a special index page for your groups with links to exercises with predefined options. This option involves an extra cost that depends on the number of exercises you want to include and the number of times per year that it will be modified. See an example here.
